Research Summary

I am an experienced hematologist in a comprehensive cancer center with clinical and research expertise in hematologic malignancies, autologous, and allogeneic blood and marrow transplantation. I have extensive clinical and research training in these areas and in genetic pharmacoepidemiology, in which I hold a Master’s degree. I have conducted and consulted on numerous clinical research endeavors in patients with hematologic malignancies, and I am currently the hematology clinical research co-chair at UCSF. I have collaborated with colleagues across departments and institutions (BMT-CTN and ALLIANCE) to conduct studies and perform data analysis on several aspects and phases of therapy for these patients. My personal area of interest involves the identification and characterization of genetic determinants of response to and toxicity from cancer therapy.
